## Resource

Manchester Airport raked in £630 million last year, with parking fees alone hitting £189 million — a £20 million surge thanks to new barrierless systems and steep late payment fines. While officials claim this revenue funds lower fares and more routes, travelers are furious over surprise £100 penalties for missing tiny payments, sparking parliamentary backlash. The airport defends the system as congestion-reducing and faster, but refuses to detail how much revenue comes from fines — fueling demands for transparency.
